This continues to be an exciting time for AEDE. The past few newsletters I have focused on the changing faces of AEDE around the Agricultural Administration building. New students, new faculty, new staff. This month I want to focus on the changing face of the Agricultural Administration building itself.
Just this week, construction started on a major renovation to the second floor of our building. Over the coming months, a new administrative office suite will be constructed to house all of AEDE’s administrative offices and staff. These changes are being driven by the College’s desire to consolidate their administrative offices on the first floor. When construction is completed in October, we will have a brand new office suite including offices for all staff members, a new conference room, a new reception area and even a kitchenette. We will also have two modern classrooms equipped with all the bells and whistles that are necessary for teaching in the 21st century.
While we will be moving out of the offices that everyone has come to know as the face of AEDE on the first floor, we are excited to have a new space for AEDE to call home. We look forward to being able to invite everyone to explore the new space in the fall. Until then, I hope everyone has a great summer and is able to find some time to get away from the daily grind and relax.
